Frequently Asked Questions

Does cotton flannel shrink?

Yes, expect 3-5% shrinkage on the first wash. Always pre-wash before cutting to ensure accurate sizing in your finished project.

Is this flannel suitable for baby items?

Yes. This is 100% natural cotton with no chemical finishes — safe and gentle for baby blankets, swaddles, burp cloths, and crib sheets.

What's the difference between flannel and fleece?

Flannel is woven cotton that's brushed for softness — breathable and lightweight. Fleece is knitted polyester — warmer and thicker but less breathable. Flannel is better for sleepwear and quilting; fleece for outerwear and blankets.

Can I use this for quilting?

Yes. The 42" width is standard quilting width. This flannel works as backing, as a warm batting layer, or for solid-block quilt designs. Pre-wash to prevent uneven shrinkage in your finished quilt.
